Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Riedel Magnum Cabernet Decanter
Customer Review: Lovely decanter - perfect for regular bottle despite "magnum" classificn by Riedel
Summary: 5 Stars
This is the decanter to get if you're looking to get a large classically shaped decanter in this line for a regular bottle of wine. Yes, this will hold a magnum but you don't want to pour all the magnum in it as there won't be enough surface area for the wine to aerate. I bought this to decant regular 750ml bottles of wine after reading some of the other reviews of this and it's shorter sibling decanter (the regular sized Cabernet Decanter). I'm glad I did as I wasn't disappointed at all. I was afraid this might end up being "huge", but it isn't. And, the regular Cabernet decanter is too small, as other reviewers of that have noted. If you're familiar with Riedel's Extreme line, this is almost an "extreme" decanter. One other thing to note: it's made of really thin, fine looking glass which looks beautiful (it's even thinner than the regular Vinum line). If you have the Riedel Vinum XL Pinot glasses, this decanter's glass thickness is exactly like those glasses. Love it. I even have the smallest version in this line which I use for when I'm just drinking a couple of glasses by myself.
Description of Riedel Magnum Cabernet Decanter
Made in Europe by Riedel, the world's most-renowned wineglass maker, this decanter allows sediment to settle, clarifying any red wine. Even with a young, sediment-free wine, the decanter makes a beautiful serving vessel by displaying the wine's color. It conforms to Riedel's exacting standards: colorless, transparent, and thin walled. It holds 64 ounces, ample for two 750-milliliter bottles of wine, and measures 11 inches high. Its graceful, outwardly curved neck provides a secure grip when pouring.Made in Austria by the world's most-renowned wineglass maker (Riedel Crystal, founded in 1756), this decanter allows sediment to settle, clarifying any older red wine. Even with a young, sediment-free wine, the decanter makes a beautiful serving vessel by displaying the wine's color. It's machine blown of brilliant 24 percent lead crystal and conforms to Riedel's exacting standards: colorless, transparent, and thin walled. It holds 64 ounces, ample for two 750-milliliter bottles of wine, and measures 11 inches high. Its graceful, outwardly curved neck provides a secure grip when pouring. Riedel crystal is used by fine restaurants all over the world and thus must stand up to frequent trips through a dishwasher. But because lead crystal has a soft, coarse surface to convey intense aromas, Riedel recommends that the decanter be hand washed. --Fred Brack
